Excellent quality of everything. Above average Meats; beef lamb chicken fish. Above average produce. Every kind of fresh herbs. Bakery can be improved. But above all they carry several different ethnics food products; Latino, Filipino, Russian, Persian... as well as diverse Specialty Meats such as whole lamb heads, beef hearts & beef tongues, pig's feet & beef stomach lining (menudo). Also just as important they always keep their prices low. The produce is a fraction of large supermarkets and always higher quality.

They may as well be known as the produce king because Super King Markets is one of the most affordable markets for fresh produce in Southern California. The volume they move is extraordinary. They really make the traditional markets look like a rip-off. The selection is always plenty. Bins are stocked and restocked daily. Annoying as it is, while you're pushing your shopping cart through crowded aisles. The craziness in the aisles will match the wild nature of their parking lots. They are not really designed well, and they can be a challenge. They have multiple locations in LA County, and Glassell Park is one of the originals. The focus of pantry items is Middle Eastern. You will find a whole lot of Goya-branded items along with many other similar labels. You really do need to see their weekly flyer for savings on pantry items. Some other items may also border on Asian and Latin American products. Spices, nuts, and herb selections are also popular and definitely a go-to item to come here for. They also have quite an alcohol selection with your standards and specialty bottles. Often, there will be sales of these also, making this a good competitor for Costco. There is also an excellent bakery with piping hot and freshly made inventory. Every kind of Middle Eastern bread item is here. Personally, I don't find their meat selection always fresh. Sometimes I don't even know if they are selling Choice grade. I also find their seafood selection to be less than appealing. There is also a deli counter if you should be in need of prepared meats and dishes.

I like this store; they have many great products, fruits, and vegetables of good quality. There are also European goods, which is a big plus. But there are some downsides and weak points. For example, the meat department — whenever you pass by it, there is always a disgusting smell, which even spreads to the bakery section with bread and pastries. You really need to do something about it; there is nothing like this in Whole Foods or Vons. Moreover, I don’t know what genius came up with this idea, but you have a sushi fridge in the meat department — that’s a terrible decision to place it there. Since the boxes are not airtight, the sushi just absorbs that smell, and it definitely affects the taste.

Super King is the smart home of the "thrifty foodie." It is a fabulous market!!! They offer a very large variety of ethnic foods at good prices. The produce is great & the dried fruits, nut & spices are seemingly endless. Plus they have have all the standard stuff your need for your home. Go, save money & get everything on your list.

Blatant Disrespect and Discrimination in the Meat Department I am a regular customer of this supermarket, but my visit on New Year's Eve left me deeply disappointed and shocked. I encountered a situation that I can only describe as a display of professional misconduct and clear discrimination. The Incident: I followed the protocol, took a number, and waited my turn. When my number was called, a young employee started fulfilling my order for 3 lbs of ground beef. At that moment, an older Hispanic employee approached, took all the remaining meat my server was bagging, and handed it to another customer (who was also Hispanic), completely bypassing my turn. When I politely asked if there was any meat left for my order, I was told "no." Why this is unacceptable: 1. Queue Jumping & Favoritism: My rights as a customer were completely ignored. It felt as though the older employee prioritized another customer based on a shared language/background, disregarding the person who was actually next in line. 2. Communication Barrier: When I asked in English why she had taken the meat from my order without consulting her colleague, she refused to respond in English, speaking only in Spanish while looking at her coworkers. 3. Discrimination: As an Asian customer, I felt targeted by this behavior. It is unacceptable for staff in a large supermarket to lack basic ethics, respect for their colleagues' workflow, and a professional level of English to address customer concerns. It is heartbreaking to experience such treatment at a store I frequently visit. I expect the management to address the conduct of the meat department staff to ensure that all customers—regardless of their race or language—are treated with equal respect and fairness.
